Shooters become photographers step by step, but Anne is doing with big jumps. Good work.

I really like his expression and the white and black, I wish least unfocused, yet beautiful portrait.

The hand gesture is a little distracting, but the suggested cropping is unnecessary, in my opinion. The composition is fantastic!

Maybe you are right, I was thinking about cropping... I uploaded it to hear your opinion about it. Thank you.

I think the cropping deal was related to the first picture in the thread?
I think all are great, but especially the first and the last
